1The imported product covered by these 

investigations is glycine, which in its solid (i.e., 

crystallized) form is a free-flowing crystalline 

material, like salt or sugar. These investigations 

cover glycine in any form and purity level, 

regardless of additives. Glycine’s chemical 

composition is C2H5NO2 and generally is classified 

under subheading 2922.49.4020 of the Harmonized 

Tariff Schedule of the United States (‘‘HTSUS’’). 

In addition, precursors of dried crystalline 

glycine, including, but not limited to, glycine slurry 

(i.e., glycine in a non-crystallized form) and sodium 

glycinate are included in these investigations. 

Glycine slurry is classified under the same HTSUS 

as crystallized glycine (2922.49.4020) and sodium 

glycinate is classified under HTSUS 2922.49.8000. 

While HTSUS subheadings are provided for 

convenience and Customs purposes, our written 

description of the scope of this investigation is 

dispositive.

of the rules (see Handbook for 

Electronic Filing Procedures, http:// 

www.usitc.gov/secretary/

handbook_on_electronic_filing.pdf). 

Persons with questions regarding 

electronic filing should contact the 

Secretary (202–205–2000 or

Any submissions that contain 

confidential business information must 

also conform with the requirements of 

section 201.6 of the Commission’s Rules 

of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 

201.6). Section 201.6 of the rules 

requires that the cover of the document 

and the individual pages be clearly 

marked as to whether they are the 

‘‘confidential’’ or ‘‘nonconfidential’’

version, and that the confidential 

business information be clearly 

identified by means of brackets. All 

written submissions, except for 

confidential business information, will 

be made available in the Office of the 

Secretary for inspection by interested 

parties. 

The Commission may include some or 

all of the confidential business 

information submitted in the course of 

this investigation in the report it sends 

to the President. After transmitting its 

report, the Commission intends to 

publish a public version of its report, 

with any confidential business 

information deleted. Any confidential 

business information received by the 

Commission in this investigation and 

used in preparing the report will not be 

published in the public version of the 

report in a manner that would reveal the 

operations of the firm supplying the 

information.

[Investigation No. 731–TA–1110 

(Preliminary)] 

Sodium Hexametaphosphate (SHMP) 

From China 

Determination 

On the basis of the record 1 developed 

in the subject investigation, the United 

States International Trade Commission 

(Commission) determines, pursuant to 

section 733(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930 

(19 U.S.C. 1673b(a)) (the Act), that there 

is a reasonable indication that an 

industry in the United States is 

materially injured by reason of imports 

from China of sodium 

hexametaphosphate, provided for in 

subheadings 2835.39.50 and 3823.90.39 

of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of 

the United States, that are alleged to be 

sold in the United States at less than fair 

value (LTFV). 

Commencement of Final Phase 

Investigation 

Pursuant to § 207.18 of the 

Commission’s rules, the Commission 

also gives notice of the commencement

investigation under section 735(a) of the 

Act. Parties that filed entries of

the investigation need not enter a

list containing the names and addresses 

of all persons, or their representatives,

Background 

On February 8, 2007, a petition was 

filed with the Commission and 

Commerce by ICL Performance 

Products, LP, St. Louis, MO, and 

Innophos, Inc., Cranbury, NJ, alleging 

that an industry in the United States is 

materially injured or threatened with 

material injury by reason of LTFV 

imports of sodium hexametaphosphate 

from China. Accordingly, effective 

February 8, 2007, the Commission 

instituted antidumping duty 

investigation No. 731–TA–1110 

(Preliminary). 

Notice of the institution of the 

Commission’s investigation and of a 

public conference to be held in 

connection therewith was given by 

posting copies of the notice in the Office 

of the Secretary, U.S. International 

Trade Commission, Washington, DC, 

and by publishing the notice in the 

Federal Register of 72 FR 7458, 

February 15, 2007. The conference was 

held in Washington, DC, on March 1, 

2007, and all persons who requested the 

opportunity were permitted to appear in 

person or by counsel. 

The Commission transmitted its 

determination in this investigation to 

the Secretary of Commerce on March 26, 

2007. The views of the Commission are 

contained in USITC Publication 3912 

(April 2007), entitled Sodium 

Hexametaphosphate from China: 

Investigation No. 731–TA–1110 

(Preliminary).
